Each Sunday, warm meals are offered through the Park Ridge Ministerial Association to those having difficulty providing enough food for their families. Sunday Suppers are hosted at First United Methodist Church, 418 W. Touhy Avenue in Park Ridge. Many local volunteer groups take part in preparing and serving healthy meals. Our church usually provides meals 3-4 times. We cook the meal at PRCC and serve it at the host site, First United Methodist Church (418 W. Touhy Avenue in Park Ridge), on our assigned dates. We prepare and serve food for 50-75 guests.
